Artists

The Friday night installment of ECTOPLASMES³ ups the ante on collaborations with a showcase designed for dramatic intensity and explosive physicality. Veteran of the French electro-acoustic scene, turntablist ARNAUD RIVIÈRE joins Quebecois free-noise brutalist GRKZGL and MONSTRE’sPHILIPPELAMBERT for a primitively loud performance. Next, MOUTHUS’ NATENELSON makes a very special Montreal appearance to perform alongside DRAINOLITH’s ALEXANDERMOSKOS and DREAMCATCHER’s BLAKEHARGREAVES for a pummeling session of digital-noise improvisation. The decibels keep rising when STEVEBATES joins forces with power-electronics duo HYENAHIVE and DREAMCATCHER’s other half, KATHERINEKLINE. Finally, ARNAUD RIVIÈRE returns to the stage for a solo performance bound to cull the highest frequencies from dormant, unsuspecting vinyl.
